Let your yarn do the talking! The interesting directional knitting of these blanket squares makes the gradual color changes of Chroma Twist shine. Choose your colors, subtle or bold, for a whirling impressionist kaleidoscope—no two blocks are the same.

Work nine blanket square units, or more if desired. Each unit requires approximately 2/3 ball of Chroma Twist. The units feature four connected mitered squares surrounded by log cabin knitting-style frames. Blanket squares are sewn or slip-stitch crocheted together.

Each unit is worked from the center out, beginning with four mitered squares. Each new mitered square is worked off the previous square. The log cabin frame is added after the four center mitered squares are complete. All pick ups and bind offs are worked on the right side.
